Lowering advise

Lowering advise
I'm not joking, seriously, I get over all the speed bumps and pot holes, it's quite stiff tho, bc's on 16 & 18 clicks of STIFF ;)

stage 1 ecu chip -
is there any point in getting this? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-300ZX-STAGE-1-ECU-CHIP-Z32-VG30DE-NA-FAIRLADY-Z-/230535203929?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35acf80c59 my car (is a frankenstine mess) its an NA shell with a TT uk engine and a jap ecu, im trying to run higher boost but suffering from a minor misfire, iv checked for a boost leak, replaced the fuel filter and stuck some redex in and that solved quite alot, the misfire has nearly gone but the boost is weird, so replacing the plugs and doing an oil change tonight.. is there any point in buying this chip? will it help?

Cold running spark plugs...
Awesom legend!! I stuck a new fuel filter on and a bottle of redex and that seems to'v solved it at lower boost but it still getting pissy above 11psi /: I'm gonna do this 3rd wire thing and the plugs on saturday see if I can fully resolve it, standard engine should be able to have more than 11psi surely?

Car.Mad I think....

Top Speed runs at trackdays or airfields
Fantastic mr presumptuous! Lol! No a motorway wasn't where my 166 location, my freind works for 'a reputable aircraft manufacturer' that has a runway availabe, however this wasn't above board as the bosses turned a blind eye for the afternoon, hence why I can't really mension where when or who my freind is... Is that ok? Sigh.

Top Speed runs at trackdays or airfields
I did 166 in my tt on my na box (on 'an' airfeild) but I bottled it and slowed down probably had a bit more to go, I'm sure a tt box should go much further
-
Cold running spark plugs...
yes I converted from na to tt in may, Iv got the tt fuel control unit, the third wire thing is exactly what I need more info on, I need an idiots guide with pics tbh /: I dunno where it needs to go on the tt ecu or on the tt fuel ecu
-
Fixed one problem now got another.
Remember when I saw u at pod I'd just fixed those iccle pipes ;)
-
Cold running spark plugs...
Standard ones, I'm running the tt fuel pump with the na fuel pump ecu (as that's what I was told) however I'm also told I need to run a 3rd wire from the main ecu to the fuel pump ecu??? This is for the3rd speed??? I don't know enough about all this to actually do it tho :( could be another possible culprit for the fuel problem, yea cba with a fmic tbh /:
-
Fixed one problem now got another.
I replaced the water pump recently due to the exact same symptoms, turned out to be a tiny 1mm split in one of the two hoses that are behind the top metal water pipe attatched to the front of the engine, they were both heavily cracked so I replaced them both :(
-
Cold running spark plugs...
So shall I just get normal plugs then? Where's the best place to get them?
-
Fixed one problem now got another.
Water pump is on the front, probably a leaking matrix pipe mine leaked a bit untill I replaced it, buhlgger to get to if u haven't removed the egr valve
-
Cold running spark plugs...
I'm planning on running bigger injecters, walbro, fmic, remap and a few other bits and bobs and right now I have a missfire on hard boost so I'm ruling a few things out, also on low boost it come is in waves but still missfires a bit, doing the easy things first, plugs, fuel filter, redex lol gonna hunt for a missing vac pipe and or a boost leak round the intercoolers
-
Cold running spark plugs...
Where do I get them? :)

Some like it.... sideways
Na with a tt engine, the RIGHT combination ;)
